Before Christmas I wrote about a couple of new Kit Kats that were in John Lewis, they are part of the Chocolatory range and are hand made. I was recently in store and noticed they still had some flavours I hadn’t tried so I decided to pick up the Chocolatory Mixologist box. I should say it wasn’t reduced in price and these are still some of the most expensive Kit Kats I’ve ever had!
I decided to start with the Whisky and Ginger edition. This particular Kit Kat is flavoured with Whisky, has ginger pieces and is covered in chocolate sugar stands which naturally went everywhere once the packet was open. It is a smart looking bar though and is made with dark chocolate.

Inside the bar it had the usual wafer but there is fair amount of chocolate on the top. I have to admit I didn’t quite like the flavour which is remarkably disappointing given the price. I like the ginger aspect this was sweet and spicy and as I had hoped for. The Whisky part though, the key element, wasn’t quite right for me. I just didn’t like the flavour, it was Whisky like but it was a little acidic and artificial, not warm and soothing. The ginger was enough to try and pull this through but finding this Chocolatory Kit Kat Whisky and Ginger to be just about ok was a disappointment. There is another Kit Kat in the box flavoured with Gin and Tonic, here is hopping that one has nailed it.
